Sho-ju Posted July 27, 2003 Share Posted July 27, 2003 I never could use cat stance in a fight and never had a hard time with anyone who liked to use it. It's great for moving into another stance but that's about it for me. (IMO) When I'm getting pounded I like sanchin but for the most part I like a boxer's stance. Both feet pointing forward not to low or far apart. Sho Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TKDShoujo Posted July 27, 2003 Share Posted July 27, 2003 I just go into a regular defensive guarding stance. Left foot in front with the back heel off the ground. I think cat stance is better for forms, not sparring. Female- 16 years old - Brown Belt 3rd grade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karatekid1975 Posted July 27, 2003 Share Posted July 27, 2003 I do a cross between a backstance and a walking stance, kind of like a upright backstance. It just feels natural and I can move quickly. Laurie F Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

delta1 Posted July 28, 2003 Share Posted July 28, 2003 I never could use cat stance in a fight and never had a hard time with anyone who liked to use it. It's great for moving into another stance but that's about it for me. A cat stance is a transitional stance. You aren't supposed to be in it for more than it takes to move through it. For that matter, no stance is a pose (unles you make the cover of BB Mag). To answer the original question, my primary fighting stance is a neutral bow. Draw a line from you to your opponent. The toe of your lead foot and the heel of the trailing foot touch the line. Feet are 45' to the line, knees bent and slightly out. If you kneel with the trailing knee it would almost touch the forward foot. Coccyx tucked slightly, back straight, head erect, hands up in guard position. Relax. Now start moving! Freedom isn't free!
